Offshore scammer
Marc Boswell
a/k/a Rex Freeman

There is a standard procedure for crooks on the lam being confronted with arrest warrants and other documents placing them in an unfavorable light: Just deny it. Claim that it's a fake. This is what noni swindler Tom McMurrain did and this is what offshore hustler Marc Boswell does. Both were being supported in these efforts by scam promoter Don Winner. McMurrain ended up being hauled off to jail, and there's no doubt the same faith awaits Boswell/Freeman - and eventually Don Winner, because you can't just go around stealing, threatening people, abusing Panama's legal system and promoting all sorts of scams without eventually being held accountable. Not even in Bananama.

Meanwhile, what if?

What if a small group of financial service providers in Panama - not the flimflam bullshitters who advertise on Don Winner's website but reputable ones - had decided that it is time for Mr. Boswell and Mr. Winner to leave (for the greener pastures of a Costa Rican jail) and stop tainting Panama's financial sector with their shenanigans? What if they put together some money to make that happen? Wouldn't that be interesting?

In other words, Rex, are you ready to enter Costa Rica again "through the front door"?

Don Winner, here sporting the latest
in wanker fashion

Wanker - whom we just found dabbles in some weird safety shit these days - comes out today with a story that he tells in such a complicated fashion that we can't figure it out. Something with diamonds and investments and it's all a scam and it was done by Florida gardening people from Panama.

Where it gets hilarious is where he starts bullying a guy called Ciprian, who owns a Romanian web hosting company, for putting up websites for the scheme:

In talking to Ciprian on the phone be pleaded ignorance to anything illegal that the Spillers might be doing with the websites that he has set up for them. In an reality there is no way he could know what they are doing with the money, how they are handling the books, and if they are breaking the law or not. And that sounded good until I started finding websites in Polish that were pumping Udachu investments. So sorry, Ciprian, I no longer buy the "I don't know anything" story. And the next time I'm in Bacau City I'll look you up.

Oh my God, now he goes to Romania to attack some innocent guy with his stun gun and take pictures of his children!

But the really, totally "dumb gringo" part is this: He implies that because websites were in Polish, Ciprian would have known what the content was. But Polish is a Slavic language while Romanian is a - as the name a sort of implies - Roman language and they have absolutely nothing in common whatsoever. Great investigative work, Wacko Donnie!

Where does he find the time. One moment he's boozing and schmoozing with the American ambassador, he hunts down an extremely dangerous pickpocket and then he is on some half-baked talkradio show and all that while running the Canal!

Yes, you read that right. He just published his quarterly management report and tells the ACP people to get off their asses and MOVE those ships!

Those ACP guys can be tough sometimes (as in - Tony Soprano.) They jealously guard their "we're doing a better job than the gringos" routine. Yeah sure, we know, and we're proud of you. Now, get back to work - tho$e $hip$ are waiting.

That's right, Panamanians. You thought you'd gotten rid of these loud-mouthed gringos in 2000, didn't ya? No such luck. And beware: He'll draw his stun gun if those boats ain't gone by the end of the week! (Or bring Tony Soprano).

Look at me being a tough guy. I am unbeatable. I am invincible. I am God. I have an oversized ego to compensate for my small dick. I am pathetic and that's why I act as if I am someone important. What I say must happen. I have the exclusive right to determine what is true and what not. I think I am a journalist. I fuck up every time I write something so I keep writing more. And what I don't write I steal. Stealing is okay as long as it's me doing the stealing. My competitors are unworthy of me and should therefore be jailed. I am a megalomaniac. I have control issues unless I control everything. I am a stupid gringo who acts tough. I think we still own this country. I have sex with my stun gun. I like to take pictures of the small children of my enemies and share them with my friends. I bully to avoid being bullied. I love criminals and help them any way I can. I can't deal with criticism. I think it should be punishable by law to say anything about me I don't agree with. I am a superstar. I am so full of shit that I make a septic tank look like a swimming pool. I am, in short, Donnie the Wanker!
